‘Matilda’ approves of protests against fascism in Manila

There are people who go viral for complaining about people protesting on the streets and then there's Mara Wilson, the American actress who famously brought to life the beloved Roald Dahl character "Matilda" in the 1996 film.

Wilson, whose Twitter name includes the phrase "Get Rid of Nazis", tweeted out a photo from a rally in Manila during the ASEAN week with the caption "Mahal Kita, Manila" coupled with a heart and the Philippine flag emojis.

The photo shows the effigy of US President Donald Trump being burned at Padre Faura to protest his attendance at the ASEAN Summit.

Wilson earlier tweeted about wanting to learn Tagalog.

Wish I could find a place in LA to learn Tagalog
